Not as bad as it's painted

Rating: Null/10 (13 May 2004)

I thought this much maligned pic was very good. Not a gore fest or a zombie thriller, I was impressed by the way it fell into a nice low key and understated shocker.
Some excellent opening scenes of a deserted London, I believe that they filmed this at 4 or 5 in the morning, bit of a plot drift in places, but an ending slightly more believable than 12 Monkeys.
The Army chaps were not credible, Ecclestone was good, but did anyone notice the racial undertones of the guy locked up in the yard?
This was never a 10, 9, or 8 out of 10, but it's 7 in my money.
